Countries without tiger bells
The only countries in East Asia where until now no tiger bells are reported, are North and South Korea, Japan, Tuva, Bhutan and Cambodia. It is very unlikely that tiger bells do not occur in these countries (with a possible exception for Japan). Therefore we ask readers from these countries in particular to look around in museums, shops, libraries, among traditional people, etc. All your information is welcome!
